1. Save water at home! Don’t let the water run when you do the dishes or brush your teeth, take quick showers, repair water leaks, use devices that save water such as an ecological dishwasher, and let the rain water your lawn!

2. Use less chemicals! Prefer natural products whether to do housework, wash yourself or do gardening. They are less polluting!

3. Never pour dangerous materials in pipelines or on the lawn! I mean painting, motor oil, ammonia or other strong solvents. Please bring them to a recycling center or a waste collection.

4. Save electricity at home! Turn off the light when you leave a room, don’t overheat your home, don’t overuse the air conditioning, turn off and unplug your electronic devices when you don’t use them, and use energy-saving bulbs!

5. Use public transportation or bike instead of the car! You will reduce the risks of pollution. Walk when you can and use the carpool system if car is your only way to go to work…

6. Buy local products! Like this, you will support your local producers and limit the emissions of carbon dioxide.

7. Try growing your own fruits and vegetables! If you have a garden or a vegetable garden, you will make savings and they will taste better!
